Art
"Art making and art collecting are vitally intertwined and mutually dependent."
Hello fellow East Melbourne community members,
I am seeking a community of people in East Melbourne who love art, and chose to collect art objects for their homes. My name is Kayla, and I live locally on Gipps Street. I am studying Art History and Curation at Monash University. Currently I am working on a curatorial project that will attempt to survey the works of art in homes in East Melbourne. By doing this I aim to initiate a community discourse surrounding art collecting, and explore an alternative method of creative placemaking. I am interested in learning anecdotal local histories through a person's art collection. This project aims to identify why and how East Melbourne locals collect art. I’m keen to understand my local community’s interests when it comes to the art they choose for their homes. I hope to connect with local people with a shared passion for art.
